A.L. Tops N.L. 4-3 In New York – Penn League All-Star Game

In a dramatic finish at Norwich, Connecticut, the American League came back to defeat the National League, by a final count of 4-3. After the N.L. took its first lead in the eighth, on an RBI-single from Felix Munoz, the A.L. fought back in the ninth. A home run by Ryan Huck, knotted the contest at three. Then with the bases full, Claudio Bautista scored on an Oscar Hernandez ground-ball force-out to short, ending the game and giving the A.L. the victory.

It was the first All-Star Game walk-off winner since the 2008 contest at “The Joe,” also won by the N.L. Huck was awarded ASG MVP honors.

More importantly for our purposes, there were a quartet of Tri-City ValleyCats, partaking in the game, on the N.L. side. Chan Moon started at DH and went 1-for-2, scoring a run in the third inning. Michael Feliz pitched a hit-less and scoreless fourth, fanning two along the way. Chris Cotton pitched the sixth, yielding one hit, one run, while striking out one batter. Andrew Walter followed in the seventh, allowing no hits, no runs, while whiffing two.
